Congratulations to worker-owner Nick for completing the Bleu Kaundi 600k brevet, and thus completing another SR series. A reminder that these rides are continuous, so a 600k is 372 miles in less than 40 hours. That’s a lot of Wawas.
This season Nick, along with many other intrepid riders, completed a 200k, 300k, 400k and 600k brevet to achieve the SR title. Congrats to all of those who attempted this feat, as even showing up to the start line shows immense courage.
Thank you again to for this photo, and being the one who inspires many others to begin randonneuring despite his preference for bowling.

Yesterday Nick, Zack and friend-of-the-shop CJ prerode the upcoming Keystone Brevet Co 200k were hosting out of the shop on June 13th! brought along his camera and snapped some great pics of the fun we had climbing up some hills. Don’t worry about the creek crossing, that’s not on the route 😉
If you’re rando curious, head to the link in our bio for more information on this ride! Brevets are non competitive, long distance and low-cost rides. This ride is challenging and not for beginners, so come and push yourself further on some new roads!
Thanks again for these photos and more we’ll be posting in the future.

.bikes is one of those companies that is so thoughtful in what they do that they make for a perfect platform for a Keystone custom build (so much so we have two more in the queue!). This Rambler SL was a dream to design and work on, and paired nicely with a compliment of and components (as our friends pointed out, there’s some poetry in putting a rack and basket on an SL rambler too).
This bike is ready for pretty much anything, and the purple and gray we find reminiscent of the 90s MTB components that inspire some of the design over at Wilde. We loved this one and would love to build one for you too :)

We built this Ti Warakin for Mike a few years ago and he wanted to upgrade so it was time to build some fancy wheels. Turbulent Aero rims in 42/49mm, CX Ray spokes, and silver hubs. Wrapped em up with new GP5000s and Waveform pedals and Mike says he’s setting PRs everywhere.

We just sent out this sweet custom Bassi Hogs Back for Meg! This one is a little bit of a work-in-progress as it will be back in the shop soon for fenders, steerer tube, and a few other tweaks, but in the meantime enjoy some details!
Notable notes include the jade Chris King, green Edelux, and gold Growtac brakes. This one is kitted out with a sensible and fun mix of parts for touring or whatever Meg wants to do with it! We love this bike

CAMPOUT! It’s that time of year folks, let’s get outside and camp with our friends. .philadelphia and Keystone are teaming up again to deliver an awesome weekend of bike camping.
We’ll be returning to Evansburg, an easy ~37 mile ride almost entirely on bike trails, for a joyous weekend of camping under the trees. This ride is unsupported, meaning you’re responsible for your own food/mechanicals/etc but there will be group rides available! Sign ups and other info at the link in our bio or at the link in the flyer. See you there!

Happy (belated) May Day! We’re a proud Worker-Owned Cooperative and have been since day one. We’re here because of generations of labor organizers paving the way for a better life for all. Our goal has always been to be the best bike shop we can be by investing in the people that make this place run. Thank you to everyone who has helped us keep going these past 6 years.
Thanks for this sick double exposure and for reminded us to Shred.

Back when we opened in 2020 no bike company was willing to take a risk on a new shop like us. took the chance and we’ve been slinging Roves Dews and Sutras ever since. Our friend and rep was in Philly for the so we took him to see the only local landmark that matters

Gravel Bike Spring 💐 this Outback we built for Greg is 💯. Full carbon Ritchey bars and seatpost (will get a Ritchey stem when we dial fit in too!). 12 speed conversion for wide range, Yokozuna Ultimo brakes for crazy stopping power, and a really nice set of wheels (did you know these are MUSA?) with tires (our favorite, you know).
This thing is crazy light and fast and capable and swaggy. Enjoy the ride Greg!
